Montañita
Montañita, Santa Elena, Ecuador-1.828° -80.754°
Levels 2-5Typical size: 2–10 ft
Ecuador's best-known surf town and the beach break in front of it — a sandy a-frame that its own guide calls fun but powerful, working best on a mid to high tide. The point at the north end of the bay is a separate, harder wave and is not this entry.
